Fate's Command: Replacing One with Another
Among the students who mocked Qin Fang, some with weaker mental fortitude were terrified and burst into uncontrollable sobs. Ah, a cacophony of screams echoed through the dark sky, creating a scene of utter chaos.
The instructors at the Shrek Academy glared angrily at Qin Fang his group. Some of the more hot-tempered instructors even wanted to attack them, their auras overwhelming, their Martial Soul surging.
Qin Fang was unfazed, even smiling, eager to try.
Hidden in the void, Xuan Zi knew perfectly well that Qin Fang's threatening words were directed at him. This kid really is used to being domineering. But Shrek Academy truly can't do anything about it.
Seeing that a conflict was about to break out, Xuan Zi immediately stepped in and suppressed the instructors, ordering them to treat this batch of students first.
Seeing that a fight was unlikely, Qin Fang withdrew his oppressive aura with a sense of loss and led Meng Hongchen and the others towards the fourth floor of the Cafeteria.
This place is usually the dining area for Inner Courtyard disciples and academy instructors. Various precious medicinal dishes are simmering over a low flame, emitting a wonderful aroma. Qin Fang could tell with just a sniff that they were in no way inferior to Uncle Li's cooking skills.
Qin Fang and the others wolfed down their food until their bellies were round and full.
When Qin Fang went to get the eighth serving, the head chef couldn't help but speak up, forbidding Qin Fang and the others from taking any more. However, Qin Fang glared back at him and looked at Cai Mei'er not far away, saying, "Dean Cai, are you not even letting us eat our fill?"
Cai Mei'er was temporarily assigned to watch over Qin Fang and the others. Try to avoid causing trouble and prevent conflicts from breaking out.
Cai Mei'er bit her lip, suppressing her anger, and squeezed out a few words: "Give them to eat."
While Qin Fang and the others were eating, an emergency meeting was held in the Sea God Sea God Pavilion.
Mu En's condition was quite bad. The vast life force of the Golden Ancient Tree refused to nourish his aged and dilapidated body, reducing his lifespan, which could have lasted for six months or even a year, to just over two months, or even less.
This was even with Zhuang Lao constantly mobilizing the Soul Power of the Martial Soul Tree of Life to help Mu En recover. If Zhuang Lao were to temporarily withdraw, Mu En's condition would be even worse.
Mu En's eyes were filled with exhaustion, his eyelids drooped as if he couldn't lift them, his chest rose and fell almost imperceptibly, and his breathing was somewhat disordered.
Mu En made a startling statement. "I may not live for more than two months."
These words filled the entire Sea God Pavilion Meeting room with a somber atmosphere. The expressions of Song Lao and the others were filled with sadness and reluctance. Even they could sense the repulsion from the Golden Ancient Tree.
Xian Lin'er was overwhelmed with grief and cried out, "Teacher, you'll be alright. I'll beg Qin Fang; he'll definitely have a way to extend your lifespan."
Xian Lin'er and the others could not see the peerless phantom of the Green Lotus Emperor, but they could sense the submission of the Golden Ancient Tree to Qin Fang.
Mu En called out to Xian Lin'er and said with a smile, "I have lived long enough in this world, more than two hundred years. I am very satisfied."
Xian Lin'er's tears fell in a steady stream.
Mu En forced his eyes open and said, "Before I die, I will arrange a few things in my capacity as the Sea God Pavilion Master. First, we will focus on developing Soul Tool and promote the integration of Soul Master and Soul Tool. One-fifth of Shrek City's annual tax revenue will be used for the Soul Engineering Institute, and we will strive to surpass Mingde Hall before the real war arrives."
"Secondly, Xuan Zi is appointed as the new Sea God Pavilion Master. Xuan Zi, your responsibilities are even greater. Do not act impulsively; always consider the overall situation."
As Mu En recounted his arrangements one by one, the atmosphere in the meeting room grew increasingly heavy and solemn.
After Xuan Zi and the others left, Mu En murmured, "Xi Shui, Xiaoyao, don't blame me. I can't let Evil Soul Master like Qin Fang live."
The killing intent in Mu En's heart had already materialized. He was forcibly suppressing this anger, but once it erupted, it would surely be earth-shattering.
A look of reminiscence crossed Mu En's eyes, even a fleeting, unrealistic fantasy: Could Qin Fang be Ye Xishui's child? The same light, the same evil. After a long while, Mu En shook his head and said self-deprecatingly, "I really am getting old, always daydreaming."
The more Zhuang Lao treated him, the more alarmed he became. Mu En's body was so old and broken; it was a miracle he was still alive.
Xuan Zi summoned the instructors from both the inner and outer academies and instructed them to keep their students in check during this period and prevent them from clashing with the Soul Master of the Sun Moon Empire.
Sea God Lake.
Qin Fang and Qin Ling'er are taking a walk to eat.
Meng Hongchen and the others have already begun their plan to empty Shrek.
Looking at the Golden Ancient Tree in the center of the lake, Qin Ling'er couldn't help but feel resentment in her eyes. She said softly, "Qin Fang, this Golden Ancient Tree was originally the Tree of Life Lake the Lake of Life in the Star Dou Great Forest. Back then, the Tree of Life was reflected in the Life Lake, and the two complemented each other. It was even more beautiful than it is now. Unfortunately, it was forcibly 'borrowed' by the gods and transplanted here."
"If this Golden Ancient Tree had stayed by the Life Lake all these years, it might have become Plant System Soul Beast long ago. And if I had been nourished by this ancient tree, my lifespan might have been even longer."
Qin Ling'er's words were full of sighs and complaints about the deity.
Qin Fang didn't even need to think about it; this was definitely something that the hypocritical God King Tang did.
Qin Fang looked at Qin Ling'er, made a promise, and smiled, "When we are stronger, we will take this ancient tree back."
Qin Fang opened the vertical eye between his eyebrows, his Life Perception automatically activated, and the voice of the Peerless Solitary Green Lotus Emperor resounded in Qin Fang's Spiritual Sea: "It! Can become your fourth Soul Spirit."
Upon hearing this, Qin Fang's heart pounded, and his blood boiled. Ah, this was something he hadn't even dared to dream of! Green Lotus had already arranged it all for him? If he were to dig up the Golden Ancient Tree and bring it back to the Sun Moon Royal Soul Engineer Academy, with its long-term nourishment, it would definitely be able to surpass Shrek Academy!
Just then, the ethereal image of the exquisite Golden Ancient Tree appeared playfully beside Qin Fang, exuding the charm of a mature woman. She gently stroked his cheek and whispered in a soft, blue voice, "Young Master, the Shi Ming is willing."
Qin Fang felt his body go numb, tingling, and very comfortable. Qin Fang then used the Absolute Zero power of his Third Martial Soul to cool his burning blood.
Qin Ling'er also saw this familiar figure and exclaimed in surprise, "Sister Life, you have materialized!"
Shi Ming glanced at the Three-Eyed Golden Lion and asked in surprise, "Little Jin Ni, you've actually switched to cultivating as a human? Did Di Tian agree?"
The Three-Eyed Golden Lion stuck out its tongue and said, "This was Di Tian's idea."
Suddenly, Shi Ming thought of Qin Fang and couldn't help but laugh out loud, saying, "You're quite lucky to have met my Young Master. With him protecting you, you'll have no worries about becoming a god. Di Tian, this is quite a gamble."
Shi Ming glanced at the Ten Thousand Demons King not far away and said, "Long time no see."
The Ten Thousand Demons King's crimson eyes were filled with astonishment as he asked, "You, how could you condense such a pure spiritual phantom?"
Plant System Soul Beast face far greater difficulties in cultivation than ordinary Soul Beast, let alone condensing such a pure spiritual phantom.
Even the spiritual phantom of a 530,000-year-old Ferocious Beast like the Ten Thousand Demons King is nothing more than this.
At this moment, Shi Ming glanced around from time to time, his eyes filled with apprehension, and said, "Master, Shrek Academy is rife with terror. They are secretly carrying out a treacherous plan to Substitution."
